Gabe Davis continues to struggle in AA. The pitching development in the minors this season has been truly dreadful.

Mason with a clunker tonight.

Huge.

For what it's worth I would be fine moving Carlson if his value was higher. There is a glut of middle infielders, and there will be another when they select Emerson or Roch in two weeks. I would absolutely trade him for some pitching but he didn't come out the gate hot and then he broke his thumb. I'd rather not sell low.

Virginia. Has to be that. Came to that conclusion when sleuthing earlier. Enjoy your Emerson winnings. 😉

Wrong thread.

Not there for me in Futures. Always errors out when I search "MLB Draft" or any of the top picks names. RIP.

@Y2Jimmy0 I saw you post the Draftkings odds for 1st overall pick in the draft, but I for the life of me can't find it. Do you still see it available on the App? Wouldn't mind sprinkling some money on Emerson at +500 if it hasn't shifted.

Trading Fauske is not it. He's ascending in an area of need. I like him more than Carlson long-term. Might be prospect hugging, but I'd rather not trade Bonemer/Fauske/Carlson yet. We are a bit ahead of schedule on contention and I think you primarily focus on rentals/eating money at this point.

God I want the White Sox to get that pick from the Pirates. Just don't know how. Sharing the top 10 picks from the BA mock that Jimmy linked.

Not even close. Ranked 498 at BA (probably moving up after the Combine showing) and 236 at Over-Slot. This is a raw tooled up guy that's probably a corner OF with hit tool concerns. Someone to dream on though. It's a Padres draft pick if I've ever seen one.

Get my man his RBI. I'm fine with it.

20 runs! Forgetting how to count! This game has everything!

Challenging a strike up 17 to 1 is peak toxicity lol.

Hooooooly.

They gonna need to re-up that firework inventory.

That's my catcher!

Too early for a position player on the mound?

Gonzoooooo!

Co-signing that this is an excellent listen. As @Y2Jimmy0 sort of alluded to, missing on Emerson's hit tool would be pretty catastrophic. The rest of the tools are solid across the board, but Konnor Griffin/Bobby Witt he is not. So you need to be pretty convinced that he's going to hit. One point that was hammered home on Roch and Lackey is that even if you come up light on both the hit and power tools by a grade or so, you are still going to have a valuable big leaguer for years, simply due to how stellar the defense is for both of them. The defensive value of both of those players will carry so much value even if the bats aren't what was projected. I think I'm still at the point where I would seriously factor in how much savings you can get and what you can do with that money with further picks.

Thanks. Gonna go listen to it on my run. Im at the point where im seriously considering just taking the cheapest of the three if there's decent savings with one of them.

Here's a fun one from the combine. Loud.
